Vanbrugh House, Bridle Path, East Boldon

Vanbrugh House is a beautiful, period house, originally built in the late 1800s and set back from the main road through East Boldon with access from the bridle path. The house occupies a fabulous mature garden plot enjoying a south facing aspect at the rear and a westerly elevation at the side. The house itself has a great deal of character and style, which has only been enhanced by the beautiful interior design and presentation of the current owners. The property has many interesting architectural features including high ceilings, cornicing, marble fireplaces, period style radiators, wood panelling and wood panelled internal doors; many of the ground floor rooms have the benefit of plantation shutters, which are a very tasteful way of dressing the windows. The gardens of Vanbrugh House are set out with lawns, mature trees and shrub borders, as well as an external patio terrace ideal for al fresco dining in the summer months. The front of the house has a gated access leading to an open parking courtyard for many cars, and there is an integral single plus garage. The front gardens are set out with lawns and a pedestrian gate gives access onto the main road leading through Boldon. A viewing is strongly recommended of this very tasteful and beautiful home.
